This can probably be attributed to employers choosing to pay employees £12 per hour instead of the NMW, to either round up the figure or pay the living wage as defined by the Living Wage Foundation, which was £12.00 in April 2024 for employees outside London and £13.15 for employees in London. There is also a smaller peak forming at the £12.50 and £13 an hour mark in the 2024 distribution.
